MSconsultors will continue to ensure the safety of FGC operations with the new Self-Protection Technical Assistance Service
We are pleased to announce that MSconsultors has been awarded again as responsible for the Self-Protection Technical Assistance Service of Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (FGC), a key project to guarantee the safety of thousands of users, workers and visitors who use its operations every year.
With this award, our team will carry out the tasks of review, implementation and maintenance of Self-Protection Plans (PAU) in the different FGC operations, which cover a wide variety of environments and activities.
Areas of action
The current contract includes a wide territorial and functional coverage:
- Espot and Port Ainé ski resorts
- La Vall de Núria
- The exploitation of Montserrat (Cermallera, Funiculars and complementary services)
- FGC operational centers
- Metropolitan railway lines: Barcelona-Vallès and Llobregat-Anoia
These facilities have very diverse characteristics: from natural mountain environments and ski resorts with a large influx of public, to metropolitan train lines with high traffic density and critical infrastructures. All of them require specific and adapted self-protection strategies.
Our goal: real and effective safety
Self-protection Plans are living documents that must be kept up to date and implemented correctly. Our team of experts will work to:
- Review and improve existing PAUs according to current regulations
- Implement procedures to ensure their effective application
- Train personnel involved in responding to emergencies
- Coordinate real-life drills and practices
- Ensure comprehensive risk management, taking into account the specificities of each operation
A trusted partnership
MSconsultors has been collaborating with FGC in the field of self-protection and safety for years. This new award consolidates a relationship based on trust, technical rigor and commitment to public safety.
Why is it important to have up-to-date PAUs?
PAUs are mandatory by regulation and essential to guarantee an effective response to any emergency situation: fires, evacuations, adverse weather conditions or technical incidents. But, above all, they are a key tool to protect lives and minimize damage.
